I'm not a buddhist in any way and I don't know the words, but it really is soothing and helps me concentrate when thinking about important stuff. It has a pretty loud and quite clear sound for such a small device. What really impressed me was the battery life. I threw in two aaa batteries when it arrived and they still haven't run out, after being on for maybe a week in total during the years. Cons: As others have mentioned, the battery lid is a bit tricky, but it stays in place once you've got it. It does not have five "songs", but four. It would've been cool if they included a little booklet with english translations, origin and meaning of mantras, etc. A simple URL pointing to an info site would suffice. Other thoughts: All in all a great product for a very low price. So good in fact, that I woke up this morning to an email saying I ordered 15 more at 4:35AM last night. What the f*** am I going to do with 16 buddhist chanting boxes??? Maybe I'll find out next time I drink 14 beers way too fast. Time will tell.Read more

Jack for earphones works well small speakers too. The facts that it's a suck a small device with DC power jack makes it really powerful and adaptable for circuit benders, sound artists and musicians... Some description in English language would be great for users. Everything already said in Pros category I really recommend this little device for circuit benders and electronic people in cause it offers a lot of possibilities for customization Read more

It's very relaxing to listen to and the volume level is pretty loud for such a small thing. It's a nice little present for any buddhists in your life.

It's a nice little present for any buddhists in your life. I'm not a buddhist, but I like to keep one on my desk at work for relaxation. I never thought I needed something like this in my life until I got one. The battery housing does not fit well, but it still plays perfectly fine. It's just a minor con. A nice quirky gift whether your friends and family are buddhist or not. Very relaxing and good value. Read more

Great stuff with nice price. The battery last longer than expected, I turn it on 24/7 on my praying desk and it still runs well after 2 weeks. 1. Clear voice on each chants 2.

The battery last longer than expected, I turn it on 24/7 on my praying desk and it still runs well after 2 weeks. 1. Clear voice on each chants 2. Includes rare chants (Vajrasttva 100 sylables mantra) 3. Very easy to use 1. No description of chant in English 2. The design of battery cover need to be reviewed, it could snap easily. 3. I turned it on playing 3rd chant, after several days I found that it back to 1st chant. Dont know how does it changed automatically. Will much better if also attached with the description of each chants. It's hard to find what is the 1st chant is, while others is quite familiar and popular. Good stuff with cheap price. With that price, this stuff is a very usefull and nice thing. Read more

1. Nice mantras included (This is Nyingma school incantation, isn't it?) 2. Also include mantra of Guru Rinpoche 3. Cheap but has clear sound 1. Will be better if explanation of the mantra included. I wonder what is the first mantra 2. It has 4 mantra, not 5. Cool item with fair price. Hopefully...1. Nice mantras included (This is Nyingma school incantation, isn't it?) 2. Also include mantra of Guru Rinpoche 3. Cheap but has clear sound 1. Will be better if explanation of the mantra included. I wonder what is the first mantra 2. It has 4 mantra, not 5. Cool item with fair price. Hopefully next production will come a long with a text book of the incantation included. Put it on my altar now, the battery last for 2 weeks before need replacement even after turned in on 24/7. A good recommended item. Read more

This little guy is perfect. you get exactly what you pay for.

several different mantras, lovely lofi sound. built in speakers or you can use the headphone jack. Also, very easy to circuit bend. the only one cooler than this was the blue one, as it had actual music along with the chants, but it is now sold out :( kinda cheaply built. batter cover seems like it could break easily. Excellent gift for a weird family member or a gift exchange. i bought a few for my friends and they love them. You get very interesting results if you play several at once starting at different times. buy ten. i did. And DX.com, Please bring us more of these travel sized chant boxes, we love them and want more! Read more

Amazing little box with 5 mantras for you to meditate to. Push the button to move on to the next and change volume and turn on/off with the vol wheel. Very simple, very cool. Can't think of any really, it just kind of works. Too simple to have problems really. It would be nice to have a few more...Amazing little box with 5 mantras for you to meditate to. Push the button to move on to the next and change volume and turn on/off with the vol wheel. Very simple, very cool. Can't think of any really, it just kind of works. Too simple to have problems really. It would be nice to have a few more chants but I think the ones you have are very high quality and very soothing. Great addition to your buddha box collection and unique in being unaccompanied Tibetan monks chanting rather than Chinese monks or pop music chants. Read more

Though there are only 5 mantras, there is some variety (short and repetitive, longer and more irregular). Pleasantly lo-fi sound quality. Quite loud for its size. None at this price.

None at this price. I bought this as a source for interesting sound loops for further electronic processing. The headphone socket makes it more suitable for this purpose than some of the more expensive &quot;Buddhist Jukeboxes&quot; available on this site. Pretty intriguing little gadget- as I understand it, the photo on the box is of the monk that recorded the mantras! For $5, you can't go wrong! Would love to install a pitch/speed wheel like the FM3 Buddha Machine. Read more

Clear sound Catchy "tunes" Probably of even more use if you're a budhist The build quality could maybe have been a bit better.

It hasn't broken or anything like that but it's just the feel of it that makes me wounder. I bought this as a gift for my brother and it was much appreciated. We're not budhists or anything but it's still a cool gadget. Perfect as a gift to make the Christmas a bit more fun and unusual. A fun and unusual gadget. It will probably not last for the rest your life, but who cares? Read more
